And others - most under 25 - should get a flaming grip and cease the practice of wandering anywhere (inc. across the street in Central London at rush hour) without looking due to typing on their "smart" phones....

Just before Xmas I sold a pair of rather notable antique Quashqai saddle bags through a dealer. They were v beautiful and far more pleasing than an SUV, whatever that is ...

Eh?

Any road oop, the surprising thing to me is that what with the insane/selfish branch of the cycling fraternity, the BMW drivers (other than Richard's brother, and possibly anton) and the pedestrians whose phones are way smarter than they are, there aren't many more fatal or serious accidents.

Down to the extra vigilance of the sensible squad I suppose. (Personally, I assume that any other road user, on two feet or two or four wheels, is going to do the stupidest thing possible, and walk/ride/drive accordingly. Seems to have worked so far )

Eh?

I was wondering that too. Secured Under Vest?

It was the logic in Zuckers post that had me puzzled.

No offence to anyone on here, but when I go down on of the roads, locally, around school picking time, there is this Thai Bride look-like person behind the wheel of an BMW SUV(a big-un!!), and hardly ever looks, just comes straight out! Beggars belief!

"A horse with a white forehead"

That must have been Google Translate garbling things as usual. The true meaning is obviously "a bus with a tiny boot".

I felt quite embarrassed driving around in it and was at pains to point out whenever possible that it wasn't my choice and I only had it for a week. I was complimented on it by several people all the same.

Very good ER! Me and Mrs BBM will be celebrating, a bit late , the 30th birthday of BBM Jnr who was 30 years old a few days ago today! BBM Jnr has been applying for pupiledges, bless him, in a barrister's chambers, or various, I should say. He's in a para legal firm in The Big Smoke.

we were at the Royal Marsden yesterday for large dose of chemotheraphy with steroids and a drug called mensa. We returned back to Sussex last night and today side affects of the chemo are apparent. GCSF injections will start on Friday to retrigger the stem cells and hopefully make them go into overdrive then back to the Marsden on 1/2 February to have stem cells harvested if the blood test are favourable they hope to take enough for 2 transplants. We will then get a date for another heavy dose of chemo and stems cells will then be transplanted back due to travel times being an hour away from the hospital this will involve up to a 4 week stay

Hope all goes even more successfully than the Medics hope - for you both.
